Abstract

Attribute reduction, as one research problem, has played an important role in rough set theory. In this paper, the concept of upper approximation reduction is introduced in intuitionistic fuzzy \(\mathcal{T}\) equivalence information systems. Moreover, rough set approach to upper approximation reduction is presented, and the judgement theorems and discernibility matrices are obtained in intuitionistic fuzzy \(\mathcal{T}\) equivalence information systems. An example illustrates the validity of the approach, and shows that it is an efficient tool for knowledge discovery in intuitionistic fuzzy \(\mathcal{T}\) equivalence information systems.
